Recycled Record Album Coasters and Notebooks

112508coastersbooks.jpgMade from vintage records, these recycled coasters and notebooks might seem a little too college-y in some settings, but could be a fun accessory in an otherwise serious or serene household. All are made in the USA with inspiration from a variety of genres; sold at Urban Outfitters.

I recognize these things from Urban Outfitters' window on Newbury St. ----- coming off that other post where they destroy items that don't sell, I wonder how these records were acquired and subsequently destroyed to make expensive goods! They were probably already scratched and useless and bought for a dollar a pound (wildly estimated rate), of course, but were not chopped up into little bitty pieces so Urban Outfitters couldn't make something out of them. Irony? Strange how the merchant wasn't specifically named in this post but linked for the unsuspecting.

These always make me cringe.

Stop ruining records for this stuff people.

KTG: thought I named Urban Outfitters the first time around; not trying to pull one over on anyone.
